I'm having trouble just keeping motivated in writing to mine, let alone sorting it out from a user experience perspective. Ever heard the expression about the builder's house? I lived with a builder once, and ITS TRUE! I guess its just hard to have energy when you do it all day long to come home and do it all night long too. How do you keep it up? From where do you draw your fountain of IA enthusiasm? I need tip-top-tips! Now there’s a gauntlet if ever I saw one thrown down!

I have many times abandoned my blog and started it over, throwing away previous posts. I suppose the excuse is, I don't have time to do this properly, so I'll either do it half-assed or not do it at all. Since I'm trying to write publicly as an exercise, I picked the half-assed method. I do agree with you though - wanna fix my blog? ;) I would much rather my blogging tool let me tag entries with keywords rather than categories for one. I think that would encourage me to use it in a more meaningful way. As far as the jargon and the pop-ups go, what do you suggest? You are a brave woman.

Totally agree with you, especially on the data-based archive-thing. I never understood why people would organize their entries by date and show little calenderers with highlighted dates. I find it difficult to imagine anybody having the need to se what was written in a certain month or on a certain day in the past. So you ask what I will do. Well, I Hi Donna!
